Delores, I love those little cans you rescued. I love succulents, too but would probably kill them, too. Every real plant I have had has died in the house. Outside plants are o.k. though. Love your kitchen, too. Those windows swung open and the sun and fresh air coming in make me long for the sun here. Rainy and very foggy today.

Well that does it, I've decided you are my favorite blog Delores! I love your style, your creativity, your ability to create amazing vignettes. It's all wonderful. And I could honestly get lost in your blog for hours if I let myself. xoxo,Kim

Aren't you samrt! That window is beautiful and your view of your ivy colored house is gorgeous! Every time I come to your blog, one of your homes (or something in them) takes my breath away. I'm getting too old to have my breath taken away! I may have to quit visiting your blog. Nah! It's worth it! laurie

I can grow things out of doors just fine but indoor plants always die. I guess I should water them once in a while. Even succulents don't make it in my house. We are months away from geranium weather. Thanks for sharing yours.

I looked at this post with such envy. My kitchen window and actually my kitchen look so much like yours it is amazing. The only difference is your windows are open and you are looking out a lush green. I am looking out at bare trees, patches of dirty snow under the pines, and a cloudy sky. I think I need a little of the California sunshine.I could so relate to how you like to change out your window with the different times of the year. I like to do the same thing and I am looking forward to putting something up with a spring time feel.Have a great weekend.Pam

Hi Delores, I love these pots! You're a hero for rescuing them! I love galvanized *things* -I have a project with *galvanized* watering cans I'm working on to make them look *aged*, please stop back at my place in a day or two for my finished display! ~Marcy

I decided to search your blog and did find your BEAUTIFUL kitchen! Here I am with 22 year old tile counter tops, wishing for granite, and you are wishing for carrera!!!! LOL! What I REALLY want is a different house!!!!! That isn't happening, I can see.... I love your house! XO, PInky
